Why does everyone rip Metallica so much? Their new stuff is obviously not as good as the old stuff. People forget to look at things from a musician's viewpoint...wouldn't you get tired of doing the same thing for decades...

They completely gutted the spirit of their music, and then took a shit in the carcass.

I was going to say, whiney little bitches that sold out. I have seen them a few times and have never really liked more than a few of there songs. I think they are heading down the Aerosmith road and will be selling their music for truck commercials pretty soon.
